Sophie has a lot going on in MS & has the opportunity to see a Dr. for therapy to help w/her anxiety. I loved that readers can see what happens in her sessions & how Sophie learns strategies to deal with her panic attacks. Destiny Lawyer you are up next! Melanie Conklin #BookPosse

Wow. In the last 16 years since I was elected the first openly LGBTQ+ student elected to Howard University's board, the student body has elected gay men, non binary, & trans people to serve as its voice on the board or as HUSA President/VP. Incredible progress. My heart is full.

It's publication day for TELL ME ABOUT OCEANS! I've loved working on this series with Jennifer Falkner. Her illustrations are full of wonder and warmth.
